Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) coreceptor usage was determined using a phenotypic assay in plasma samples from treatment-naive women infected with subtype C virus who had CD4 cell counts below 200 cells/mm3. Of 148 women 14.9% were infected with dual/mixed (DM) virus; the remainder had R5 virus. A greater proportion of women in the lowest CD4 cell count stratum had DM virus (p=0.026); change in coreceptor use after ART exposure was uncommon. CXCR4-using HIV-1 was less common in subtype C-infected women than reported in subtype B cohorts, but was most prevalent in women with the lowest CD4 cell counts.
